In this paper‚ we examine Happy Pet Clinic‚ a local veterinary clinic‚ and how the principles of elasticity of demand might frame its pricing decisions and planning. As a small practice‚ every change the managers make can have a significant impact on the clinic ’s income. Price Elasticity of Demand‚ Cross Price Elasticity of Demand‚ and Income Elasticity of Demand concepts can be used to analyze and estimate how prices changes may affect the clinic ’s bottom line Professional Vet Brand pet food
